We all know that the Canucks never really did have an "air force"


This gave me a chuckle....and a fond memory of a good friend!!

I can just see you walking into Bader's inner office at 242 at Coltishall
during the BOB and saying this!!

Douglas wouldn't have known whether to buy you a drink and beg for more
planes and people, or hit you over the head with a tin leg!!!. Knowing him
like I did, I'd make a guess he'd bash you first with the tin leg, then pick
you up and offer you the drink!
